The event
What remains of our bonds when they break? Family separation, rejection, the end of a relationship or a return after a long absence: four films explore moments when ties come undone and each person must find a way forward. Through wounds, memories and reunions, they also tell of what continues to connect us despite distance and time.
The films
Josua Hotz
Nirin is six years old. It is the first time he has left his small home village in Madagascar. With his mother and two younger brothers, he crosses the country by bush taxi. His mother has promised them a long and beautiful journey, and Nirin is excited to discover the country. But the trip does not unfold as he imagined.
L'orphelin
Carolina Markowicz
The story of Jonathas, an orphan who is adopted and later “returned” because of his effeminate mannerisms. Based on true events.
Felipe Casanova
An obsolete phone and the digital memory of a broken relationship. Both fragile, both reassembled to reveal fragments of a first love. Through the meticulous manipulation of disembodied metal parts and the filmmaker’s attentive gaze at found intimate archives, a movement of suspension and resistance to the ephemeral emerges. A playful reflection on what remains.
Plongée
Marton Olympo, Anderson de Jesus
While preparing for a weekend at the beach, a family’s emotions are shaken by the return of the eldest son, who has been absent for ten years. Despite themselves, each family member is forced to dive deep into their own feelings.
